The Wacky Hi-Jinks of....Fenris

Due to this awesome video of Fenris of Darkthrone drunkenly extolling the virtues of Adrenalin O.D. to a portly, ball-washing German journalist, I was reminded of how awesome this album is. Kinda weird that this raging slice of funny punk would be the American punk record that a figurehead of Norwegian Black Metal would go all gaga over... but I'm with him, it's a cool record.

Actually I feel like I saw the video on Metal Inquisition some time ago, I could be wrong. I knew he was a fan of some obscure punk and hc, but was pretty astounded that he would know of, and be all giddy over AOD. The Puke thing seems more likely, they were pretty well known in Scandinavia, no?

that interview is great.Fenriz is absolutely hilarious(not to mention the BIG german guy who interviews him).that's a video that should be seen by all black metallers who take themselves too seriously.and all those hardcore tough guys should listen to Adrenalin O.D.hardcore can be hard,furious and fun from time to time.thanks once again Aesop.

Yeah, sure, I certainly knew about them when I was really young. I think they were on one of the classic compilations of the day, like perhaps it was Really Fast vol whatever. Back then never thought them favorites nor truth be told much to get excited about...but today that record proves some lasting power qualities...

Someone gave me the Misanthrope DVD last year, haven't watched it yet...kinda just thought "norway" and threw it in some box somewhere...will watch it later.

What it's about.

It's about sharing hard to find and special recordings. It's not about taking anything away from the artists themselves. Of course if something is in print and you like it, buy it. If you have legitimate claim to something posted here and want it removed, just write me and I'll do so. It's definitely not about furthering any sort of political agenda, you might find some things here that you don't agree with. The views of the bands are their own and don't necessarily reflect my ideology or political views. Of course comments and suggestions are welcomed, but don't be hurt if they aren't responded to or taken. I will do my absolute best to be accomidating. Want to contact me? Do it here:
